So... why not? |

I actually don't care about the whole top mounted thing. |

I would have LOVED to see two footswitches with separate gain knobs, though. |

| | | | You know for some reason I think this will be a fuzz pedal, remember Doug has mention that he is going to make a fuzz pedal based on old circuit?

So... why not? | It would have had to be in a much larger box for that - we wanted to keep it compact. |

It interacts beautifully with the Drive knob to recreate the effects that other factors like recording techniques had over the sound, such as different types of harmonics and even compression levels!
